ikr. I was so close to having the outcome of a match be a surprise! So close!
I could have gotten into anything...and yet I chose the story aimed at young Japanese boys about martial arts, and later about super-powerful aliens punching each other really hard.

Yeah, don't worry about it. Twitter would've probably spoiled it. Or reddit. Or anything, really.

Sometimes, I wish we weren't so meticulous in trying to get the leaks ASAP. That ruined Smash Bros and Pokemon announcements.

But either way, the tournament seems to be going in the direction I wanted it to be, so that's all good.

So basically, they're fucked at ep 37? lol Monaka where you at! you're literally the only hope U7 has :lolno:
By how I see ep 37's title, Vegeta will be outclassed, wtf? a saiyan god outclassed? this I got to see, Hit or Cabba must be some sort of God slayers or something.
I dont know how to feel about finding out Piccolo wins, just a day more and the outcome would have been a surprise for me :lol:

Not gonna lie, a LITTLE bit concerned about this series being rushed the way it is. The pacing is very very fast.

I think the tournament is just the start. I think the whole point of the tournament is for universe 7 to lose so then they can travel to universe 6 and the real action starts there.

The fact they announced a NEW closing theme tell me they're ok

I'm also hoping for more than 52 episodes, there seems to be so much to explore and loads for us to learn yet. Doing the math though 52 \ 4 = 13 and that seems to be around the number of episodes that they do before an ending change. I hope I'm wrong though as even though the series has had its fair share of problems I enjoy sitting down with my family and watching it every Sunday. To me its new dragon ball and that's all I need to be happy (though a little more effort with the fight sequences would be appreciated)

Spoiled myself again. Fuck. I just hope Piccolo wins both fights and loses to Cabe, then Vegeta defeats Cabe and gets beaten by Hit, then Monaka enters and I hope Hit wins. But it will probably be Piccolo loses to Magetta, Vegeta takes over but loses to Cabe, then Monaka goes and defeats Cabe showcasing his great power, then he loses to Hit, stunning everybody.

I really doubt they would've brought dragon ball back in anime form just to cancel it after one arc especially with the merchandise doing so well.

So Goku wins then loses, Piccolo wins then loses, so Vegeta must win against Cabba then lose to Hit. Then big nips comes in and the final fate of the Earth is in his hands, I guess he loses too, then Earth gets moved then then Bulma and co need to search for the wish orbs while Goku and Vegeta go around U6 looking for fights.

Well then. Episode titles. The best way to spoil the show.
I'm not really surprised by how the tournament is unfolding, though. It's been a battle of strategy and technique instead of power so far, so it does make sense in that regard.

As far as the end of Super goes, I agree with Geekdom. Since there's a fourth ending, there's almost certainly an arc after the tournament ends. I'm more unsure about the story after that, though, as I am getting late GT vibes from this pacing. We'll just have to keep watching, I guess.

So it looks like they're going with a so-obvious-it's-bland 'everyone gets a turn to fight' progression.

So, as I see it, here's how things may progress:

Why does everyone think that Piccolo will lose against Magetta?

Goku got 2 fights so we're guessing that's how it'll go for everyone else.

I think it could go 2 ways :

1 :

Goku vs Botamo
Gokuvs Frost
Piccolo vs Frost
Piccolovs Magetta
Vegeta vs Maggeta
Vegetavs Kaybe
Monaka vs Kaybe
Monaka vs Hit

or 2 :

Goku vs Botamo
Gokuvs Frost
Piccolo vs Frost
Piccolo vs Magetta
Piccolovs Kaybe
Vegeta vs Kaybe
Vegetavs hit
Monaka vs Hit

As surprising as it may be, I really doubt Piccolo of all people is gonna get two victories in this tournament. He's gonzo at Magetta imo.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

It's too boring and predictable for everyone to have 1 win and then lose.

You guys think they're just going to skip over Buu's spot? Beerus seemed pretty adamant about having Monaka fight last, and if the bracket of U7 fighters is going to flow the same way as the bracket of U6 fighters is proving itself to, it looks like Buu's spot is up to fight after Vegeta.
